[Apple Pencil Pro (squeeze) palette] Support toolbar customization
We all use different tools more frequently, and the new squeeze-to-display-palette with the Apple Pencil Pro is fantastic, but it isn't reflecting the new customized order we make in the top toolbar. And of course it should, it seems to me.

Missing the previous Apple Pencil Pro squeeze customization since the update. It used to be possible to assign tools individually, especially the Lasso tool, and now the Lasso is only available in the top toolbar. The tool palette can no longer be customized, which forces constant reaching up to select the Lasso. I use the Lasso tool a lot and this slows down my entire workflow because the purpose of the Pencil Pro squeeze was quick access without moving the arm. There is also no option to revert back to GoodNotes 6. Screenshots are attached. Please please pleaseeee change it back, it sucks to work like this 😭😭

Gerne hätte ich eine Möglichkeit meine Palette bei Nutzung der Squeeze Funktion des Apple Pencil Pro selber zu sortierendem Beispiel Lasso Funktion direkt neben Stift und Radierer ähnlich wie bei der Toolbar oben.

When squeezing the Apple Pencil Pro you can’t edit the tools shown and/or rearrange them. Even if you change the tools in your upper toolbar it isn’t reflected in the Pencil Toolbar. It would be amazing if you could change the order of the tools, as it was in the old good notes, because it would greatly improve workflow. For example: pencil, eraser, lasso, marker (instead of the chaos now)

I don’t use or like the pencil writing tool. Can you give the ability for us to move it or hide it from the toolbar? When I squeeze my Apple Pencil, I also wish to remove it from those options as well, or at least be able to put the tools in order of preference.

let us customize the tools like it was before. for example i dont use pencil tool, and i dont want it to take space. also, when using apple pencil squeeze, i want to customize the tools. i usually switch between pen and highlighter, but the highlighter is hidden , so i need an extra swipe to choose it.

Please add the option to be able to customize and re-arrange tools on the pallet for Apple Pencil pro. This will greatly improve the experience for many iPad users

Why is the new eraser the third option in the palette, but the second option at the top? It's inconsistent and doesn't make for good muscle memory usage

With the new layout update, people with the ability to squeeze their pencils should be able to customize the layout to their pleasing.

I’d really love to have the option to rearrange the tools in the Apple Pencil Pro palette again.
Before the recent update, I could place the Lasso next to the Pen and the Highlighter right after which matched my workflow perfectly.
The current fixed order slows things down a lot, and customizing it would make the Pencil Pro experience feel much smoother and more personal again.Additionally, it would be great to have more than three Highlighter colors available in the palette or even the option to manually add custom colors.
This would make note-taking and color coding much more flexible and efficient.Please bring back the ability to freely arrange the palette tools and allow more customizable Highlighter colors! 🙏

I for the life of me cant find any options to change or rearrange the tools, pens, lasso, insert etc on the quick tool palette when you squeeze the apple pencil pro. Ive consulted google and the goodnotes website. This must not be a functionality currently available.
I believe this would be a massive quality of life upgrade if it was implemented. I will detail why from my personal experience
I personally use goodnotes 6 almost exclusively for note taking and to write out mathematical formulas.
I have the ability to squeeze and select my fountain pen and my three custom presets. Which is great because it is the first option in the tool wheel upon squeeze.
However then i must scroll past the pencil (which i never use)
Then the eraser, (which i have double tap function to select anyways).
At this point none of the next tools or pens are visible upon activating.
Then the Highlighter, (which i never use, because the three presets of fountain pen are so much better!! <3)
Then the brush. (again i never use)
Then the shapes which i use semi frequently.
Only then do you get to Lasso which is the most op tool in the entire app.
Then you must go past stickers(useless for me), the insert picture (great feature but not needed with in my quick tools, Text box (same as previous)
Then I get to my zoom window, another Op feature and my third most used item in the app after fountain pen and lasso.
So ideally if we can change and rearrange my pen's quick wheel I would have the Fountain Pen, followed by lasso, and then zoom window.
I would then delete the rest minus ruler.
Please give us this feature I know I cant be the only person who wishes to customize their pens tool wheel to suit their uses.

I feel as if Goodnotes should recognise that when the Apple Pencil Pro is in use, the squeeze palette should replace the toolbar for writing customisation. This should allow for more real estate at the top of the iPad as well as make it feel like a pro feature for those that have the pencil. Also a good unique selling point for marketing more real estate as well as the squeeze feature in general.

Please allow users to change their pallet order for the Apple Pencil Pro Squeeze Pallet. I only use the pen and lasso tool, but to get to the lasso tool, I need to scroll over many items (the highlighter, pencil, etc..) It is very uncomfortable!!

Also would like to have more options of color then just 3 colors

The apple pro has a squeeze function which is incredibly useful to toggle back and forth from pen to eraser. I am very used to using this over the double tap function on a regular goodnotes document. However it is not supported when writing on flashcards. Please make this simple update.

It would be highly useful to be able to customize the squeeze toolbar to the users liking
In the same fashion as the toolbar in settings.
We could reorganize the toolbar in a manner we each personally like -

It would be very useful to be able to customize the Squeeze Control so that not only the floating menu appears, but for example to be able to change COLOR with the same tool. Since I know that you can change tools with the squeeze but enabling the color change would save a lot of time.
In addition, the option to improve writing added with iPadOS 18 in Apple's native notes app could be added, in this way the hand notes would be more readable.

Please also add a palm rejection/‘Squeeze to dismiss the Palette’ toggle in settings.
The number of times the palette disappears because of some palm movement (Because I can’t rearrange the toolbar and ‘pen color’ is in the upper right, outside of normal wrist mobility) is so high I stopped using it.

Please correct the phenomenon that the tape tool does not appear on the tool palette when using the Apple Pencil Pro Squeeze Gesture tool palette
